The issue is, where do you draw the line for what qualifies as "destroying company property"? The case itself was about concrete truck drivers who let their concrete harden, wasting it. In the lawsuit itself, they specifically say "we took measures so no trucks were damaged, but the concrete was wasted".

So now you have a precedent that companies can say "oh no, we have veggies/concrete/anything perishable, if you strike--it will be wasted and you'll be 'destroying company property'".

That's the entire point of a strike, dude! You point out "hey, if we don't work, your business literally fails".

Right. I don't think straight up vandalism should be protected, but if, for example, restaurant workers refused to work then a lot of food will likely go bad. The union shouldn't be liable for those kinds of losses.
